Solution

  1. The false statement about Kirby’s percentile for the exam is B. Kirby did not get the highest score among the four friends. His percentile was 50th, which means he scored higher than 50% of the examinees, not that he scored the highest.

  2. Based on the given percentiles, the person who got the highest score among the four is C. Antonio. He is in the 95th percentile, which means he scored higher than 95% of the examinees.

  3. The interpretation of the result that the 7th decile is equal to 86.06 in a Physics test scores of 35 students is D. 70% of the students got a score less than or equal to 86.06. The 7th decile represents the 70th percentile, which means 70% of the students scored 86.06 or less.
